Development of Underwater Organism-supported Breathing System: A plant-based Approach

Innovator Details

Innovator
Dr. PraNob Kumar Mondal

About

The project aims to develop an underwater breathing system by utilizing plant-based organisms to support human respiration. This innovative approach could involve integrating aquatic plants or algae, known for their ability to produce oxygen through photosynthesis, into a wearable or implantable system that can sustain breathing in underwater environments. The concept focuses on harnessing Notural processes for sustaiNoble and oxygen-efficient solutions in diving and underwater research. The system could also contribute to reducing reliance on traditioNol compressed air systems, offering a more eco-friendly and potentially cost-effective alterNotive for underwater exploration and operations.
